I figured since I was in the middle of audio editing this stuff I'd take the chance to post up some stuff you guys didn't get to hear if you missed the con. There will be more details when the audio is posted (and you can listen to ROb talk about it):
2007 Arsenal: Toys, Toys, Toys (Nov) 2008 Corporate Enclaves: Neo-Tokyo, LA (minor looks at NYC, nairobi, Tenochtitlan) Ghost Cartels: Just announced Plot book Unwired: Technos, riggers, Hackers! (April) Feral Cities: barrens and urban decay... yum! Crime Time(?): Org Crime (name is a placeholder) Runner's Companion: get yer meta-variants here! (Shadowrun Companion redux) 2009 The 20th anniversary of SHADOWRUN!!!! Awakened Huants: Setting book Running Wild: Critters, plus rules on things dealing with critters Corporate Handbook: Including new things like a peek at corp culture The Johnson's Companion: Little Black Book redux Unnamed Plot book: hey, that's all he told us... tentatively: The 6th World Almanac: You gotta listen to the audio to understand.. I won't even go into it... rock :D So, I'm excited. Anyone else out there? The management asks you clean up the puddles of drool before you exit :grinbig: |

Is that the same book-type thing that was on the German-only drawing board? |

It was done, they need to edit out the seemingly hours of pushing games about walking tanks and other silliness at us, as well as adjusting the volume and providing IDs of who was talking, since it took about 45 minutes before anyone got around to saying who they were. I think the guy running the recording software said the original audio file was well over 100 MB, so it needs to be trimmed and processed a tad.

I'd like to underscore that it's the same type of idea not the same book... |

I really hope that these books will include something new for the old-timers, and not just revised things for the fourth edition... |

Well, Running Wild has been on the blocks for a long, long time. It has always promised to add new dimensions to Shadowrun, no matter what the edition. It was never actually planned as a Monster Manual type book, as much as (as far as I can recall) a tome on how to integrate Critters into a campaign in previously-unpublished manners.

Interesting given the recentish introduction of magical and technological 'pets' into the rules. |
